Schizophrenia Research Forum

Schizophrenia Research Forum is a website dedicated to convey information about schizophrenia. It hosts the SzGene Database, which provides a comprehensive, unbiased and regularly updated field synopsis of genetic association studies performed in schizophrenia with hundreds of up-to-date meta-analyses for all eligible polymorphisms.[1]

NARSAD and the National Institute of Mental Health[2], among others, fund the organization. It was inspired by the Alzheimer Research Forum website.[3]
